Abstract

The 'fast PIII' rod mediated photoreceptor response to flashes of monochromatic light has been investigated in isolated retinae of the RCS rat at age 30 days. A loss of both sensitivity and maximum response amplitude were found, with a concurrent slowing of the response kinetics. These observations indicate a rod abnormality which may underly the altered adaptational properties in these retinae.
